Start the presses!

I want to pass on an apology from Celena and Marty of The Filigree: life is unpredictable and a regrettable delay of the autumn issue of their amazing newspaper was unavoidable, but things have now returned to normal and they're getting back on track! Watch for the next issue to "arrive" soon! http://www.thefiligree.com/






In the meantime, you can ponder why this incredible mummy and her partner are still homeless? Perhaps you can offer them a cool, comfortable place to while away eternity? Read more about them here.


Me? I'm looking out the window just now and it's SNOWING!!!! ACK! Such is Canada...

Ghoulish Grin!

I can brag a little, right? I'm very happy to announce that I actually have had a sale! One of my bat-head brooches, the tan Spotted Bat, is going south to CT! Yippy!

So, that makes a total of 9 sales off the tour so far! Let's hope we can keep this going!

By the way, this brooch was $30.00 with $10.00 going to BCI.

Howl with delight!

It is my pleasure to extend The Barkery's invitation to you all!

If you're anywhere near Stratford, Ontario (Canada) on October 30th, dress up your pup (if you're blessed enough to have one) and join in on the Hallowe'en fun! There will be prizes for best costumes, treats (of course) and a parade to City Hall! Woof! Rain or shine!

The Barkery, of course, is on our Trick or Treat Tour as the sole "shop" because of this event (and frankly their decorated, healthy, all natural cookies are works of art!), which extends our love of Hallowe'en to our canine companions! And ps: Werewolves are welcome!

4 winds!

We're spreading like "The Mist" in Stephen King's gory story! Yippy! Check us out on http://bookrat-misty.blogspot.com in her Helluva Hallowe'en! We're listed on http://www.shadynookcrafts.com/craftshows.htm and read Kathleen's lovely review on http://www.mythinglinks.org/Samhain.html! WOW!


Don't forget that a number of artists made some very special bats for our tour, like April Norton's "Baby Bats". A list of batty artists appears on http://pages.total.net/~weric/trick_or_treat/batty.htm .

Like magic!

As the month glides by like a ghost, you may notice some of the art objects... disappearing! And new ones magically appearing! As works get sold, the artists are all invited to offer new items, so don't delay if you like something!



Adrianne Kinsella is one of our lucky artists to have sold a piece and she's offering a new, stunningly beautiful vase featuring a raven! Come and have a peek! No, I'm not going to tell you exactly where she is, have fun hunting her down... and remember to enter to win the "Creaking Door Prize"!
Have fun! Only 20 days to Hallowe'en!

Rising from the dead!

Or nearly so! Connectivity was restored Sunday afternoon, thank the ghouls at Glidehosting! Although what went wrong? Something about a "problem with mysql", whatever that means! I'm sure our statistics are going to reflect this glitch! Yuck!

Thank you all for your patience!

Really screaming!

My apologies to all: GlideHosting is having some sort of difficulty and you can't access the tour at http://www.halloweenstudiotour.com/ ! AARRRGGHHHH!!!!!

You CAN, however, access it at http://pages.total.net/~weric/trick_or_treat/enter.htm !

I hope the problem will be resolved soon!

Man, this sucks!

We're out there!

Our tour is in my local paper! In the "What's On" section of the October 8th issue, here's our advertisement! Wow! Looks great and the editor did a great job! Thanks so much!

If you want to help us out, see if your local paper will run a similar ad! We'd really appreciate it! So would the bats!

Flying high!

Check out how great we look on Bat Conservation International's home page, http://www.batcon.org/! Yippy!
